Our Sorrowful Mother's Ministry

Betania XVI Community

Some of our recent testimonials:

"Through Mary's patronage, Our Sorrowful Mother's Ministry provides a grace-filled opportunity to "come away and rest" awhile. Nurtured by the Lord through work, sacrament, and prayer, participants come away empowered to continue to grow in the knowledge, love, and service of our Holy Faith!" -Fr. John Titus, Eastern Illinois University chaplain

"The riches of God's grace flow from this Sanctuary of Our Sorrowful Mother as a great delight for thirsty souls and weary hearts. It refreshes and builds up the spirit in such a tremendous way." -Fr. Martin Edward, pastor of St. Stephen's Catholic Church in Flora, IL.

"Under the patronage of our Sorrowful Mother, this ministry seeks to bring relief, consolation, and healing to the troubled members of Christ's Body." -Fr. Wolfgang Seitz, Opus Angelorum

"Our Sorrowful Mother's Ministry glorifies Jesus Christ and builds up the body of Christ in love. This is the most important thing that can be said of any ministry in the Church. It happens in Vandalia because loving and dedicated people minister in faith to the needs of people who come seeking the Lord." -Fr. Richard McAlear, internationally known healing priest.

"Even in the darkness of this world, every now and again the Lord gives us a little glimpse of His Civilization of Love. I experienced this in Vandalia. May the love of Jesus Eucharistic and Mary Immaculate bind up every wound of those who come to OSMM." -Fr. Sean Davidson, Missionaries of the Most Holy Eucharist
